A lengthy video has come in for The Mummy Demastered, WayForward’s next game releasing on Switch next week. View 35 minutes of footage below.

The Flame in the Flood recently made it to Switch. With the game having also been published on other platforms, Digital Foundry decided to see how the Switch version holds up.

Similar to other systems, The Flame in the Flood runs at an uncapped frame rate on Switch. That can lead to gameplay that isn’t always smooth. However, the title appears to be fairly comparable to the PlayStation 4 edition.

A new trailer is online for Real Farm. While the game is making its initial debut today, the Switch version is scheduled for 2018. View today’s video below.

Yono and the Celestial Elephants creator Niklas Hallin is cooking up a new patch for the game. Currently, the plan is to add in support for the Switch Pro Controller. Hallin says it’ll take some time for the patch to go through Nintendo’s submission process, “but it’s on its way.”

Hallin wrote on Twitter today:

Heroes of the Monkey Tavern may very well be getting a demo. The “Coming Soon” section on the European eShop has a listing for the game, with an image promoting that a demo is available. It’s not actually out yet as far as we can tell, but it may be distributed closer to the release.

Monkey Stories hasn’t officially announced the Switch release date for Heroes of the Monkey Tavern. However, it’s currently planned for November 7.

Switch’s firmware update last night was notable for several reasons. It added features like video capture and the ability to transfer data, but it also included support for eShop pre-loads – like what has been on Wii U and 3DS.

In Japan, the very first pre-load option has gone live. By accessing the eShop, it’s possible to purchase Snipperclips Plus ahead of time. Doing so allows you to download most of the necessary data, with only a small update needed to begin playing at launch.

Snipperclips Plus takes up 1.1GB in case you’re curious.
